Miller says he's 90 percent sure he'll be No. 40

[gimmesix]

Good move by Luepke, knowing he's not going to make nearly as much as Miller has in his career. Preparing for life after football.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Smart move Luepke

 

[shabazz]

Leupke studied business and finance at North Dakota State.

Hes too economicaly astute too turn down a lifetime supply of chicken gizzards, necks and feet over a jersey number.

It is difficult understanding how anyone would not cave for a lifetime of free chicken. Ask any turkey (or Chick Fil A cow) and they would say you would be crazy not taking that deal.

Von is being nice because I would’ve told him to kick me rocks.

I mean equity in his company is weird more than chicken for life he can buy his own chicken with that. Smart guy.

 

[OGSixshooter]

Luepke didn't chicken out.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Luepke didn't chicken out.

 

[MarcusRock]

Luepke didn't chicken out.

And he knows a thing or two about finance so he's not winging it out there.

He did turn down the lifetime supply in favor of equity in the chicken company.

Anyone can see why Hunter Luepke is being so stubborn. He's 26. On the other hand, Von Miller is no spring chicken.

Was there any doubt with this?

Yeah, Miller talked about 2 percent being worth $100,000 a year. He apparently didn't give him that much (if that's what the deal is), but even if it's a fourth of that, $25,000 a year is better than chicken for life ... unless you are going to eat a whole bunch of chicken.

Yeah I was thinking less than a percent but that still is solid. 25k extra a year for a number is great money. Smart guy.

So using some simple maths Miller is doing $5m per year it would seem. How many years does he collect on this payout, can’t be in perpetuity.

Yeah but what Miller offered wasn't exactly chicken feed

 

[DallasEast]

Realistic observations are ruining all the good chicken jokes.

Not if he offered it to Larry Allen

The key is to weave the realism in with the jokes.
